- One new to me this week! A species that I’ve not come across before, Winter Heliotrope, Petasites pyrenaicus. Sweetly scented but sadly an invasive introduced species but it was interesting to see it whilst visiting my daughter in Leeds. #wildflowerhour
- Wow! I looked it up in @bsbibotany.bsky.social atlas and was surprised how sparse the distribution is in the north. You were lucky to see it in Leeds! 😮 plantatlas2020.org/atlas/2cd4p9...
- Thanks Roger, I’ve been looking out for it so it was interesting to see it at last!Feb 1, 2026 21:23
- There's a few patches around me - including an ENTIRE front garden 😂
- 😮 I notice on the BSBI map there’s a big hole in distribution around Warrington which is why I haven’t come across it locally
